Quito Ecuador25-31/10 2020

Quito, a paradise that inspires emotions ...

Founded in the 16th century on the ruins of an ancient Inca city and perched at 2,850 meters above sea level, the capital of Ecuador has the best preserved and least altered historic center in all of Latin America, despite the earthquake that shook it in 1917. Sumptuously ornamented inside, the monasteries of San Francisco and Santo Domingo, as well as the church and the school of the Compañía de Jesús, are a finished example of the art of the baroque school of Quito, in which Spanish aesthetic influences merge, Italian, Mudejar, Flemish and indigenous.
